The United States has now recorded more than 19 million COVID-19 cases. According to Johns Hopkins University, 19,097,377 million Americans have been diagnosed with COVID-19 resulting in 333,007 deaths. This represents a mortality rate of 1.7%.
While the mortality rate has been gradually declining, COVID-19 has now killed 1 out of every 1,000 Americans. More than 60,000 Americans have lost their lives this month alone.
With four days left in 2020 there is a good chance this country will reach 20 million cases given the Christmas festivities. This Christmas hasn't been so Merry and this year hasn't been so Happy.
